Where is the Camry trunk switch located?
2 Answers
Camry trunk switch is located below the left side of the driver's seat. The position of the car trunk switch button varies depending on different manufacturers and models. There are two methods to open the Camry trunk: using the trunk opening button on the car key, or directly pressing the red circle button under the driver's seat. Below are the reasons why a car trunk may not open: 1. Linkage rod or lock cylinder issue: If you frequently use the key to open the trunk, the linkage rod may be broken and needs to be repaired at a service center. If you always use the remote to open the trunk, the lock cylinder may be dirty or rusty; spraying rust remover into the lock cylinder a few times can help open it. 2. Mechanical part failure: The trunk itself may have issues, such as a broken wire or other trunk-related problems causing the car trunk not to open.
I've been driving a Camry for several years, and the trunk release actually has multiple locations for daily convenience. The most common one is on the remote key fob—there's a button that opens the trunk with a single press, making it easy to operate while driving by keeping it on you. Additionally, there’s a button on the driver’s door panel, right next to the window controls, within easy reach—just press it, and the trunk pops open automatically. If your car has keyless entry, you can unlock the trunk by simply touching the sensor area under the handle when you approach it, which is quite handy. If none of these switches work, check the remote’s battery or the door lock mechanism; there’s also an external emergency button on the trunk lid itself. After using the car, I always wipe the buttons clean to prevent sticking. Well-placed switches are all about convenience and safety.
